This blog is about life onboard SV Moana Roa, a 46 foot sailing catamaran, and the journey from the Caribbean back to Australia. Laurie and Sonia, Travis, Beau, and Kara leave home on Christmas Island (Australian Indian Ocean Territories) in December 2012 and set sail in January 2013.

Rodney Bay Marina, Saint Lucia

Beau and I spent 3 nights onboard in the boatyard and launched the boat on New Year's eve.  It's a relief to be on the water but we have a few jobs to do before Sonia, Travis and Kara join us next week. We watched the midnight fireworks from the dinghy and have met a few Aussies in the marina.  We set off for Martinique on the weekend but the weather is looking dodgy with 30kn headwinds!
